According to religious dogma an event like an appearance of a polity ruled by infidels in what formerly was perceived as part of Dar-al-Islam is totally unacceptable. It's against the will of God, and therefore absurd.

I also forget to mention in my response that the Jihadists continue to proclaim that previous parts of the world once under Arab rule are also areas that need to be "liberated", including Spain.

Jihadists claim that the only correct form of governance is the Caliphate, led by a Caliph. No one is clear on who the caliph should be or how one gains the title. The Caliphate is ruled by shari'a law, in both public and private life, with no popular elections or legislature. The land governed by this Caliphate includes any area that has ever been subjected Islamic law, which includes all of Russia, China, parts of France, Spain, plus all of the Middle East. The Caliphate's foreign policy is eternal jihad.
